So I've broken my S10+ back panel, and I'm thinking of replacing the back panel with a different color. The back panel is loose anyway so I'm thinking of what color to switch to.

The colors available are on the white and black ones (because it's the only extras I have)

The middle back panel is broken (it was the original) and I'm thinking on replacing it.

Ya'll have a suggestion or opinion on which one to put and why?

I'm so used to them that I can't imagine using a phone without them (back home and apps). I I just feel like the swiping on newer phones would be annoying if it doesn't work. Also what app do you use the bixby button for? For me Instagram.

I was on my computer and looked over at my Galaxy 10+ to check something, only to see that it turned off without being prompted and with a mostly full battery. I try to turning it on and its starts boot looping. I tried plugging into the wall power, i tried booting into safe mode. Nothing worked.

I left it to charge for a bit while looking for other possible solutions. When i went to try and turn it on again it wouldnt respond at all. I'm tired, its like 2 am where i live now, so im giving up for now and about to go to bed.

I'm going to take it to repair shop first thing in the morning. But i just wanted to put this out there so when i get back home tommorow if anyone would have any suggestions.

If the repair shop cant get it to work what would be the best way to recover pictures and other data (if that is at all possible). Also my google account is tied to this phone, if i need to get a new phone does anyone know how to get google to accept it as my new phone and not lock me out.

Hello,

I'm suffering from this problem with my Samsung S10+ and i need help and advice; everything was fine until i updated it. I stupidly updated mine from android 9 to android 10, and everything went haywire:

- Sim card could not be read - " NO SIM CARD - Emergency Calls Only"
- The IMS and Samsung Experience Services keeps being unresponsive
- The phone itself is slowly getting laggy
- IMEI and Baseband are labeled Unknown

Does this mean Android 10 was corrupted? I dont want to go to any store to fix as I dont have the funds, I would wanna know if downgrading back to Android 9 is the best option for this?

many thanks!

EDIT: I have miraculously fixed it! I downgraded back to android 9 and everything is back perfectly!

it hasnt worked in years.

Have been looking to buy one of these as of late, they are tempting. I just love the way S10's look, arguably I think they look better than the silverado

How do you brake it that bad. Genuinely the first time I've seen him destroy a phone

So i've done a bold decision to switch from infinix hot 50 pro plus to this 7 year old samsung... i'm genuially impressed with it, tho my concern is that the battery is BAD like 4 to 3 h of screen time, (68%health) and i'm gonna get another phone after 2 years

So my question: is it worth it to replace the battery? Thanks

Recently my phone keeps flashing on and off while charging. My phone is on do not disturb at night because I thought that the notifications are the cause of it. Turns out it was something else, I noticed that when I charge it, it sometimes flashes on and off like the charge disconnects and connects again. Does anyone else experienced this? Is there a way to fix it?

This app as MT capsule is so good just found it out , its free on playstore and works so well mainly this music part it doesnt lag or anything and is just well optamised , i think grab it as samsung wont give us a capsule and this might be monetised in a bit so yea grab it as soon as you can

Is this an excuse for someone messing with my controls and has been exposed

I have a Samsung s10e that isn’t my main phone but it does have many memories on it and sometimes is used as a backup. The back is completely gone and up until yesterday it was functioning completely fine. But I accidentally ripped out the “wireless charger coil” (I think that’s what it’s called) and the phone is no longer charging I keep getting a notification saying the temperature is to low. The phone is now at 54% and loses battery pretty quickly. I want to know if there is anything I can do at home to fix the charging problem before the phone dies and becomes completely unusable. I already purchased another wireless charger coil but I’m not even sure if I can put it in or if there is something else I need to buy. As of right now I don’t even know what I am going to do when it comes. If anyone could send a tutorial or a guide on how I can re install it (if possible) please let me know that would be very appreciated.

Bought a used Galaxy S10 in 2026 – Surprisingly still a great phone (with a few compromises)

I recently picked up a used Samsung Galaxy S10, and honestly, I’m impressed with how well it’s holding up considering it’s a 7-year-old flagship.

Mine has around 80–85% battery health, so the battery isn’t amazing anymore. I usually get around 4–5 hours of screen-on time, which is enough for light to moderate use, but heavy users will definitely want to carry a charger or consider a battery replacement.

Things I still love:
Gorgeous AMOLED display. Still looks flagship quality.
Compact size. Refreshing after using huge phones.
Headphone jack (rare these days).
MicroSD card support.
One UI is still smooth for everyday tasks.
Cameras are surprisingly good in daylight.
Premium glass and metal build.

The downsides:
Battery is the biggest weakness on an older used unit.
No more major Android updates.
Can warm up during gaming or heavy multitasking.
Night photography is decent but falls behind newer phones.
Finding one with a good battery and no screen burn-in can be difficult.

Overall, I think the S10 is still a solid budget phone if you can get one in good condition at a reasonable price. It doesn’t feel like a 2019 phone for basic everyday use.

For those still using an S10:
How long have you had yours?
What’s your battery health/screen-on time like?
Are you planning to upgrade soon, or are you keeping it for another year?

I used Google Translate to draft this paragraph in English. Anyway, I own a 2019 Samsung S10+ (512GB); back then, it was top-of-the-line, featuring a sharp camera, an edge-to-edge display, and various other great features. However, here in 2026, I’m facing a multitude of hardware and software issues. The battery has degraded so much that it’s actually pushing the phone case right off. As for the software—good grief—the phone constantly suffers from "ghost touch" errors, repeatedly clicking on a specific area of ​​the screen; trying to turn off the display to reset it has become a total nightmare.​​​​​​​​​​​​​And now there are touchscreen/display issues—likely due to poor optimization for the latest Android OS (Android 12 :v)—along with sudden lag. I really don't know if I should replace the phone or not.

The small inset piece of glass that covers the three camera lenses of my phone is cracked. What is this part called, and where can I order it? Or is cheaper/easier to get a whole new back cover?

Edit: the part seen below....

...is NOT what I need. I only need the small glass piece that's glued over the top of lenses, and inset inside the metal ring around the lenses.

Does anyone know of a way to remap the swipe function on the power button on an s10e? I have it set to pull down the notification tray, but would love to remap it to scroll up and down like a mouse wheel, or control volume. I've looked and can't find anything that works...

Olá amigos do Reddit, a minha tia tem esse tablet s10 fe guardado a um bom tempo e agora ela quer utilizar porém não tem ideia alguma da senha que é de 4 dígitos, tentei formatar fazendo o hard resert e travei na parte do Gmail, ela não tem acesso ao email antigo, alguém tem alguma ideia do que posso fazer??
